Hod do I pass a socket variable over a socket connection

Question

Anyone know what syntax I could use to pass a socket variable over a socket connection? I can't imagine it'll go as a string, int, or double. --That's all I know how to pass.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Answer 1

I was trying to get two programs accesing a server
program through the same socket connection. Are you
telling me this is impossible? If so, please go to
this link and give me a hand with the other way I
think I can get this to work...Sure ya can....
...something like this:
Server:
ServerSocket serverSock = new ServerSocket(8888); // 8888 = whatever port you want to listen on
while (bWaitingConnections)
  Socket socket = serverSock.accept(); // WAIT until client connects to our port.
  Thread thread = new MySocketHandlingThread(socket);
  thread.start();
}Client:
Socket socket = new Socket(sServerHostName, 8888);
// ... connected to Server on port 8888 ....
